Pregnant women, what should you avoid at restaurant?

Make good choices in the restaurant is not always obvious. By cons, for pregnant women, eating requires vigilance and a certain structure. In fact, pregnant women should avoid certain foods during pregnancy to ensure proper fetal growth. Simple Nutrition has raised for you foods to avoid and those that you can eat without fear to the restaurant to simplify your life and mind.


to start
In places, avoid oysters, sushi, mussels, raw milk cheese, pâté or rillettes, deli meats, carpaccio or tartare since they are served raw and may be carrying toxoplasmosis and / or listeriosis , a disease caused by listeria, a bacteria that can affect the normal growth of your baby. Instead, opt for cooked shrimp or scallops. Also, pay special attention to the foods used in the preparation of your entries. The dishes containing raw eggs should be avoided since they may be carrying toxoplasmosis. Do not hesitate to ask your server to make sure that your choice is safe.


Main courses
As for the inputs, avoid dishes containing raw meat such as sushi smoked salmon tartare listeriosis can be carriers. Turn instead to well-cooked fish. Also, note that the pasta dishes containing Carbonara sauce should be avoided since it is prepared with raw eggs and may be carrying toxoplasmosis.



finally
Pay attention to your particular choice of desserts since many are prepared using raw egg whites and are obviously to be avoided. Chocolate mousse, tiramisu, soufflés and even home ice cream can be made from raw eggs. Opt for fruit salads, sorbets or crème brûlée.



On the advice I wish you a wonderful pregnancy.
